announced via advisory DSA 1461-1.

Brad Fitzpatrick discovered that the UTF-8 decoding functions of libxml2,
the GNOME XML library, validate UTF-8 correctness insufficiently, which
may lead to denial of service by forcing libxml2 into an infinite loop.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem will be fixed soon.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.27.dfsg-2.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.16-7sarge1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.
